PIN.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 757,096, dated April 12, 1904. Application filed September 8, 1903. $eria1 No. 172,213- (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, SIMON DANOYGER, a citizen of the United States, residing at Dayton, in the county of Montgomery and State of Ohio, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Pins; and I do hereby declare that the following is a full, clear, and exact description of the invention, which will enable others skilled in the art to which it appertains to make and use the same, reference being had to the accompanying drawings, and to the figures of reference marked thereon, which form a part of this specification.

My invention relates to improvements on a patent for pins issued to me July 3, 1894, Serial No. 486,932, which will be fully hereinafter described and claimed.

The object of my improvement is an extension of the member terminated at the neck of the two loops forming the head, and thereby forming an increased penetrating-surface the more readily to maintain the position of the pin when in use.

The construction is illustrated in the accompanying drawings, in which Figure 1 is a top view of the pin. Fig. 2 is a side view of the same with the point of the extended member curved slightly downward.

The numerals designate like parts in the two views.

The pin is formed of a single piece of wire comprising the pointed shaft 1, the circular loops 2 and 3, which form the head, and the semicircular bends at the center of said loops terminating in said shaft, and the pointed end 4, the .same being shown straight at Fig. 1, with a slight outward incline that the said points will enter at difl erent places in the goods, and at Fig. 2 this member is curved slightly downward to make the engagement more secure. 1

In use the goods are penetrated by the point of the shaft, and as it is pressed home the other point likewise enters the same, and this makes the holding more secure. The like member having the downward curve when pressed-into the goods makes a firmer holding, and to detach the same it requires a slight rotation of the head to readily release its hold.

What I claim is 1. As an improved article of manufacture the pin formed of a single piece of wire having the bend and two circular loops on a plane adjacent to form the head, bends over the central portion with the'two ends being adjacently parallel, one terminating in a point laterally inclined and the other projecting to form the shaft and nearly in line with the plane of the head, said points adapted to penetrate a fabric in separate orifices to hold more securely, substantially as set forth.

2. As an improved article of manufacture the pin formed of a single piece of "wire having the bend and two circular loops on a plane adjacent to form the head, bends over the central portion with the two ends being adjacently parallel, one terminating in a point curved downwardly and the other projecting to form the shaft, and arranged laterally parallel, and both adaptedto penetrate a fabric in separate orifices, substantially as set forth.

In testimony that I claim the foregoing as my own I aflix my signature in presence of two witnesses.

SIMON DANOYGER.
